He died at 53 in a car accident that left me crippled. I've sung this song many times over the years without crying.

Oh, the memories. As an eight year old boy infatuated with my best friend and first love (we sat together in infants' school), in a land foreign to me and from which I was shortly to depart. I was not relishing the leaving. In the back garden, I was singing this favourite song and about to utter, (I had to leave a little girl in) 'Kingston town', when my mother from an upstairs window at prcisely the right time, intervened, interposed and shouted down with 'London town'. Oh! The indignity of it! My indignation was palpable. Sixty five years later, I still feel it. I wonder, to this day, how that 'little girl' is faring in life. Thank you Harry . . . forever the star.
